Psalms 139:5-6

David responded to his own reflection by expressing the thought that God was confining him. This is often our initial reaction to God’s omniscience. The writer also felt out of control in the presence of such vast knowledge. "Wonderful" is at the beginning of the sentence in the Hebrew text, which is the emphatic position. This word means extraordinary or surpassing (cf. Psalms 9:1). Yahweh’s omniscience is too amazing for humans to comprehend.
